People are being advised to avoid the area.
A car burst into flames on Parnell Street this afternoon as the city prepares for its 1916 centenary celebrations.
A by-stander caught a video of the fire and billowing smoke filling the surrounding area.
Emergency services were called to the scene to put out the fire. There have been no reports of injuries, but the car looks well and truly cooked judging by the video below – taken from the Twitter account of Polly Molotov.
